BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS ? 07/03/02



Case No. 02-V98---Tabled.



A. H. Dudley, III, 304 S. Lumpkin Road, presented his appeal for a

variance to reduce the requirement for a 6 inch aggregate base to existing

base. The property is zoned M-1.



Bill Duck, Inspections and Code Enforcement Division, stated that he knows the

Board heard the case last month, but there was some confusion as to the date

between Mr. Dudley and our staff as to when he would be here initially. He was

scheduled to be here this meeting and then we were able to get him on the June

meeting which he didn?t understand that he was suppose to be on the June

meeting. So we would ask that you hear Mr. Dudley and give him a chance to

speak on this case and then take whatever action you feel is necessary.



David Fox: You are right, there was some misunderstanding

from the explanation. I don?t understand why we are hearing this particular

case. If you could give us some back ground on why.



Bill Duck: The council back in (I think) 1999 passed an ordinance dealing with

existing mobile home parks. They went in and developed certain criteria that

had to be met in order to bring the existing mobile home parks up to a certain

standard and it dealt mainly with most of your public areas. Your roads in

there, your lighting, ground cover, erosion type issues, garbage dumpsters,

garbage collection- those general issues. They established a standard and then

gave all the mobile home parks 14 months to come into compliance with that new

ordinance. What we did then is met with each one of the park owners, Rebecca

did, and went through as to the elements that needed to be addressed in their

particular park. Then they had the 14 months to come into compliance. At the

end of their 14 months, we go back out to look at it. We had a number of the

mobile home parks that were working on it that weren?t quite completed that got

some additional time. That?s how we got to where we are in this case. We have

an issue that were dealing with Mr. Dudley on with the streets. I think the

other corrections in his park have been made. There is an issue with streets

that Rebecca had been dealing with him on that still is not in compliance with

the ordinance as far as we are concerned with that. The appeal in the

ordinance, the way the ordinance was written is- he has appeal rights to this

Board to hear, if he doesn?t agree with our determination on his part then he

has a right to appeal to this Board the decisions that we make on the park.

BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS ? 07/03/2002





David Fox: It talks about the requirement of a 6 inch aggregate base. That

seems to be more of an engineering design issue than a variance or a rezoning

issue.

Bill Duck: It could have been written up as a Decision from the Building

Official that we denied it because of what he has in place. The way that it

was written up when he came in was a variance, there are several options that

he has-as far as a road base in the park. This is one, a six inch aggregate.

That?s what we had been working on him with and done some test with him on is a

6 inch base in there. You can use a gravel base, you can use a lesser gravel

base with an asphalt on top or you can use concrete. There are dimensions in

that ordinance for the various types.

David Fox: It has to be a smooth aggregate of some kind?

Bill Duck: Something that is a normal drivable surface is what were looking

for.

David Fox: But not crushed and run or something like that. Bill Duck: Not

necessarily crush and run, it just says an aggregate base. It gives you a good

base that is drivable during all weather that drains properly was the intent of

the ordinance. We had a lot of problems in some of the parks with a lot of

water and water holes. Residence?s getting in and out of the park. That?s one

of the things that council was trying to deal with in the ordinance.



In his statement and in response to questions from the Board Members, Mr.

Dudley gave the following information. On May 16th he applied for a variance

and he called and confirmed with Danny Cargill when he was suppose to be at the

meeting. I was told to be here today (July 3, 2002), I?m here today. I

subsequently got a letter from Bill Duck dated June 5, 2002 postmarked June 20,

2002 that his appeal had been turned down and that I did not show up for the

meeting. At that point, I decided that I needed legal council and before I

proceeded any further I called Randy Warner. He requested that I come down. He

is out of town this week. He requested of Bill Duck and me that I request to

you that this be continued until the next meeting in order to acquaint him with

the issues. In the event that it proceeded further after hearing this appeal.

I have prepared a package that I was going to give all of you prior to coming

down here. But upon talking to him, he asked that I come down here and request

that he be present when I make the appeal. I would appreciate if you let me do

that. My case is legitimate and solid and I?m asking that my council be

present and that I be able to come back in August.
